FIELD TRIP
Logan had just enough time to take a quick shower and throw some clothes into a small duffle bag. He left everything else there, planning on coming back. As soon as he made his way over to Marie, there was a knock at the door. As she opened the door, he quickly grabbed both of their bags and headed to follow her. It was the same crew as before, minus Storm. All the way to the jet, everyone stayed silent, knowing the tension that was there. Bobby had made a point in coming along, much to everyone's discomfort, but did not want his problem's with Marie to get the best of him. But Logan made it a point to stay particularly close to Marie as his eyes watched every movement Bobby made. He couldn't help but wonder what it was that Marie had seen in this guy. But he did remember that she said that he had changed. Still, he tried to piece it together, as she had admitted to wanting him rather than this Bobby, even before. There were no similarities between the two men that Logan could see and decided not to even bother in torturing his own mind any longer, considering how much he just wanted this Bobby to try one little thing so that he could torture him a little. Logan grinned to himself as he thought this, but noticed Jean turned to him a little bit disturbed, but he quickly looked away, realizing that he was probably projected some pretty nasty images.
Once they made it to the jet, Logan could not believe the nerve of this guy. He was really started to unnerve him more so than old one eye. As Logan sat next to Marie, Bobby sat directly in front of Logan, making sure that Marie could see him. Logan did not notice that he silently growled, but couldn't help but grin when Marie turned towards him and smiled. He gently took hold of her hand, hoping to support her in any way he could at that point, without necessarily having to gut Bobby just yet.
They hadn't been in the air more than fifteen minutes and Bobby was already complaining. He wanted to try and pilot the jet. Scott insisted that right now was not the time, no matter how experienced Bobby was nor how many hours he had in the flight simulator. So he just sat there complaining. Marie remembered how he had constantly pulled this stunt after they became full-fledged members of the X-men and cringed slightly. Logan, however, was simply getting sick of this guys constant complaining. He put his hand next to Bobby's seat, and with a familiar snikt, Bobby and the rest of the passengers jumped. Marie simply tried to suppress her giggles at Bobby's reaction. Making his intentions clear, without even saying a word, was able to shut Bobby up.
It wasn't long until they reached the mansion. Once they departed the jet, Storm was waiting. She showed both Logan and Marie to their rooms and explained that there would be a meeting tonight about the mission, but that the mission would not actually happen until tomorrow. Logan didn't like that his room was down the hall from Marie's, but was glad for his heightened hearing ability. If Bobby or anyone else tried anything, he wanted to be there for her. She was a good person and didn't deserve all that they had done to her, let alone more. If nothing else, her coming back here, on her own will proves that.
As soon as Storm showed him his room, he dropped his bags and made his way back towards Marie's. But before he made it there, he noticed that she was standing right outside her room with Bobby hovering over her, blocking her from escape as he had his hands against the door. She seemed as if she was trying to melt into the door, wanting to get away from him, but refused to give him any satisfaction of showing any emotion. Logan's hearing was better than good, but he still had trouble hearing what Bobby was whispering into her ear from that distance, so Logan quickly made his way over to the two. Bobby hadn't noticed Logan stalking up behind him until he was grabbed from behind and shoved into the wall behind him. He held him in place with his forearm pressing against his neck. Without taking his eyes off of the guy before him he asked Marie if she was alright.
"Yeah Logan, Ah'm fahne."
"Is he bothering you darlin'?" Marie lightly placed her hand on Logan's shoulder.
"Ah'm fahne." she told him quietly. Logan slowly and begrudgingly let loose his hold on Bobby.
"So this is what you go for now Marie? Old men?" Bobby laughed as he stood straight summing up his potential opponent.
"Watch it bub, or I will have to show you what an old man can do to a punk kid like you."
"You wouldn't. You're a guest here, not X-men." Marie stepped in front of Logan.
"Ah may beh a guest Bobby, but Ah'm needed. So if ya don't get, ya gonna beh mah reason ta leave, or at least that's what Ah'll tell the Professor aftah Ah let Logan take a small piece of ya." Bobby narrowed his eyes but added non-chalantly, "Is that before you drain me dry?" But with that he finally left the two. Marie let out a breath that she did not know that she was holding as she stepped back and slid down the wall next to her door.
"You really okay?" Logan asked her. She didn't respond, but she slowly stood up on shaky legs and walked into her room allowing Logan to follow her. She sat down on her bed quickly.
"Ah didn't expect them to hold this out for so long. Ah was ready ta do this now." she told him meekly. Logan made his way over to her, sitting himself next to her, he lifted her chin, causing her to meet his gaze.
"You made it this far, you can make it the rest of the way. Besides, you have me here, and I won't let anybody do anything that you don't want them to, darlin'." she smiled at him gently as she closed the distance between the two and kissed him.
